Thanks Hacksaw Bob

I have all those bits bar the clamp but reading the fitting notes its the adapter that is also screwed in to the turbo and the filter that i feel may be cracked, the turbo end is just corroded in and having tried to undo the union and the adapter/collar below is where there is a leak and the pipe seems unstable .
I feel if it has not already cracked it will shear on further tampering so trying to sort part and then take it to Old Boy to rectify.
Sorry for the poor description and being abit of a plank.


so any further help on sourcing greatly received


Thanks for your time
